5 out of 6 of our in-game champion's pokemon are now OU. :P congrats roserade and spiritomb.

If wobb really is going to uber though it will be really interesting to see how much this changes next month. Maybe the number of OU pokemon will increase again? It would be interesting if it continued to decrease as well.

Nothing will change. Wobbuffet is impossible to prepare for, so it doesn't have much of an impact on individual statistics. It's what happens when he is sent out that matters.

Happy Wobbs is finally uber, hopefully Deoxys will be next. Anyway. Glad to see Roserade and Spiritomb back in OU. Not a huge surprise. I'm willing to bet Roserade is almost always used as a lead w/ Focus Sash and Toxic Spikes. Spiritomb is probably a response to Deoxys increased usage. Plus, if Dusknoir is OU certainly Spiritomb should be since I believe he outclasses him entirely, maybe people are starting to realize this.

Any surprises? I'm a little surprised by Ninjask actually, not that he is a good Pokemon but I always figured there would be those people who just couldn't resist the SD+Speed Boost pass. It's where it belongs really. Abomasnow usage has been down. I'm not sure why but Hail teams generally (note the use of the term generally for those who might be offended) Hail teams don't work that well in this metagame with Stealth Rock (despite all Hail teams carrying a Rapid Spinner) and hyper-offense (particularly Heatran). In the case of Kingdra, with auto-weather inducers it can be hard to find time to set up a Rain Dance. That's probably why Kingdra has declined. Donphan is absolutely no surprise. I see very few rapid spinners anymore let alone Donphan. He's just not good enough any more. I'm a little surprised about P-Z dropping down. Maybe it's this metagame's centralization towards physical attackers? I also think that primarily special attackers are now using a lot of mixed sets just to beat Blissey (e.g. Azelf and Gengar with Explosion) and Porygon-Z, while he can, doesn't run a mixed set as effectively as some. Actually, if Blissey's usage continues to decline Porygon-Z might see rise later on.

I'd like to see how Dragonite ends up. I really think people underestimate it, and pretty soon it will fall to BL. Anyways, I'm extremely happy that Wobbuffet moved to Ubers. :) But shouldn't there be a Pokémon taking Wobb's spot as 46? I know that the initial count was done including Wobbuffet in terms of testing the percentage of Pokémon who should be OU, so I think Wobbuffet needs to be removed and the percentages need to be recalculated. I'm not sure if I'm making sense, so basically there needs to be one or two more OU Pokémon.

Not surprised with Donphan and PorygonZ at all, as for WiFi. PorygonZ was like 'god' on WiFi (Shoddy too I guess) since it could like OHKO Blissey with Adaptability +2 special attack Hyper Beam, and all the noobs started chasing after it.

Ninjask was never really OU imo, like PorygonZ, I'm pretty sure all the new people used it simply because the strategy was so easy to handle. Kingdra and Abomasnow have their weaknesses being they need a weather to be able to contribute to their fullest potential, or a nasty 25% hp decrease every switch in just to bring the hail back.
